Located in the heart of the Atlantic Forest, the project combines rusticity and elegance, with solutions that ensure comfort and integration with the natural landscape. Nestled amidst the lush vegetation of Ubatuba, on the north coast of São Paulo, the ISA Residence was designed as a 2,691 square foot vacation home on a 5,381 square foot lot that enhances the surrounding nature and offers a refuge of sophistication and comfort.

The project stands out for its choice of natural materials such as wood, stone, and large glass panels, creating a perfect integration between the indoor and outdoor environments. “The proposal was to create a space that brings maximum tranquility, harmony, and connection with nature, offering the residents a home for leisure moments, but with comfort and sophistication,” explains the architect responsible for the project.

One of the biggest challenges was the narrow and elongated terrain, which was overcome by bringing the garden inside the living room, creating a continuous visual connection with the surrounding greenery.

Additionally, the garden serves as a link to the extensive preserved green area that leads to the river, offering residents the opportunity to paddle to the beach. “The project’s proposal was to create fluid spaces where the areas connect organically, while also ensuring that the house has the necessary privacy without losing the connection to the greenery and surroundings,” states the architect.

There is also an accessible suite, which was requested by the clients. The upper floor houses three spacious suites, all with large windows that provide privileged views of the treetops and green area. The master suite features a balcony overlooking the pool and vegetation.
